I was at a presentation recently about the history of radio, and one of
the presenters was from a company called Flex-Radio which produces a
"blackbox" that you can hook to your computer, and receive shortwave
radio. I looked up the cost, and it was around $1500. I was wondering
if there was a "blackbox" that you could hook to your computer to
receive just AM and FM, which might be priced in the fifty dollar
range. I searched on the interent, but what I found was somewhat
comfusing to someone who is not an expert.

Thanks
